One of the great mysteries in life is why the fuck is Jon Arbuckle constantly baking whole ass trays of lasagna. Dude lives alone. He gets mad that Garfield eats it, but like what else was he going to do with it? Eat the whole tray by himself?
Garfield is doing him a favor tbh.

Sometimes I get into these moods where it's hard to read a book. It's like, I read a few sentences, then, I spend the next ten minutes imagining my own fanfic for what happens next for the next 8 chapters instead of just reading those chapters.

Qobuz, this is a shameful stance on AI.

You call this a Human First approach while going out of your way to talk about where AI is useful in music and then the final insult to injury is an AI summary of the article.

Maybe a hot take but I think the old style "give us your credit card to prove you're an adult" method of determining age is better than the current methods we're using. Let me explain why in the replies.

Someone is standing around doing nothing for hours and it ain't soccer players.
A common complaint I hear from Americans about soccer vs football is that it's a bunch of people standing around doing nothing. This is infuriating. The Football clock is 1 hour total. Soccer's is 90 minutes. The Superbowl started 3.5 hours ago and it's still going.

The fact that they have determined the two possible options are pack your underwear with clay or inject your penis with acid means that some people have evaluated those two options and chose the injection.

Seriously though I think some sports from Summer Olympics that are primarily played indoors like table tennis should be moved to the Winter Olympics. That would help with variety of events at the Winter Olympics.
One of my biggest complaints with the Winter Olympics is that too many events are just races of some kind, and most of the ones that aren't are judging competitions of some kind. This is why curling is the best Winter Olympics sport.

I thought "don't destroy evidence that might be used in a case" was already the rule. Why did we need a court order for it and more importantly why is that court order being lifted?

Rafflesia sounds like some stupid bullshit somebody made up to be as absurd as possible.
"Ok so there's this parasite."
Right
"It's a plant parasite like kudzu."
Ok
"Except it has no leaves at all. Just the vine part."
Uhh....

I feel like the longer I go without sleep it's like the less oxygen my brain starts getting. First everything becomes hilarious. Eventually my judgement deteriorates until I feel the desire to reply to everything with unhinged shit and I have to go to sleep before that actually happens.

Loyalty to Cheeto Benito is a one way deal. You could be the most gold plated, shit covered nosed, yessiest yes man to ever exist and he won't even be in the room with you when you're told to jump on the sword.

Remember the other day when I was saluting my friend Greg Ketter, owner of Minneapolis’ DreamHaven Books? This is him the following day. Greg will never say this, so I will — now is a great time to buy books from DreamHaven. Support Americans who stand up vs. 🧊. dreamhavenbooks.com

The only appropriate answer to this question:
I am feeling a little peculiar. And so I wake in the morning and I step outside and I take a deep breath and I get real high and I scream to the top of my lungs, "what's going on?"

Batman has a strict no killing rule. A lot of people say "why not just Joker, he's the worst one?" Well if you kill him, someone else becomes the new worst one. The problem is that once you justify one murder, it's easier to justify others.
The same holds true for letting murderers escape justice.
